AfterElton’s review of the homoerotic Jackass: Number Two notes that though gay jokes are in, gay slurs are definitely out: “In it, viewers will see the Jackass cast–often naked or almost naked–getting into every possible position with one another and delighting in all sorts of bodily fluids. But not once will viewers hear the cast utter the word ‘fag.’ It’s no secret that the word is regularly thrown around by homophobic men when justifying and denying their own clearly homoerotic behavior with one another. So one would almost expect to hear “fag” or other such slurs bandied about when, in the film, the rest of the guys watch Steve-O consume a beer via a beer bong—and not with his mouth.”

And the Trocks make wicked comedy out of the competitive manoeuvres of the corps, spiking each other’s steps, messing with their costumes and angling to make eye contact with the audience.”
